“Hateful! It’s really hateful!”

Lü Jue was justified by these two people’s words with no guilt or repentance. He was so angry that his chest filled with rage, as if every word he spat out had a tail of flames. He tightened his grip on the handle of the hatchet in his hand, resisting the urge to chop off their heads.

“No beast would bother to do such a bastard thing!” The blazing anger almost burned away Lu Jue’s reason. “Are the lives of common people not human lives in your eyes?”

The half-hearted scribe looked ashen.

He hates Shen Tang, calls her a thief, calls Gu Chi and others dogs, and hates the people of Fugu for adding insult to injury, but that doesn't mean that he really doesn't understand anything. At least he knew what would happen if he told these truths - there would be no way out, he would definitely die!

Anyway, it was death, so he risked it.

He spat a mouthful of bloody saliva and accidentally touched the wound at the corner of his mouth. The loose gums released more warm and sweet blood, which filled the entire mouth along his tongue. With an expression of contempt and disdain, he replied: "How can the humble life of common people be regarded as human life?"

Lu Jue was completely angered by these words.

Hit the hatchet vertically into his thigh with his backhand.

Most of the blade was engulfed in flesh and blood, making a hole.

The half-experienced scholar Wen Xin let out a shrill scream. Lu Jue held the handle of the knife and stirred it in his flesh a few times. His expression was as ferocious as that of an evil ghost, and his hot breath spat on the man's cheek: "So Can't bear the pain?"

As he said, he stroked again.

Blood gushed out from the wound.

Lu Jue pulled out the hatchet with a little force and said coldly: "It only hurts you twice, but other people will be dead!"

This wound is huge.

The weeds pressed by the thighs passed through it.

This bloody and brutal scene stunned the other person.

When he thought that the same wound would appear on his body, he couldn't help but tremble with his two limbs. He opened his mouth and begged Lu Jue for mercy: "Zhuang, Zhuang, I, I was wronged. I was forced to do this by the thief. To commit such an outrageous thing..."

"Strong man, I never dare to do it again..."

"Please spare my life, brave man..."

When Lu Jue brandished his sword to vent his anger, Gu Chi remained silent, looking far away, as if admiring the scenery. Until he heard the spineless begging for mercy, he let out a short disdainful laugh: "Begging for mercy? You are such a coward."

If these two people go to the dark side, Gu Chi will be in a good mood. , maybe they will leave their whole corpses.

But I didn’t expect this man’s bones to be so soft.

Start begging for mercy if you scare me.

After a second thought, Gu Chi understood.

Their lives are far more precious than those of ordinary people.

A man is capable of bending and stretching. Wouldn't it be a pity if he died easily? Furthermore, it is never too late for a gentleman to seek revenge in ten years!

The half-hearted Literary Scholar also looked at his accomplices sarcastically. Although his expression was twisted ferociously due to pain, it did not affect the contempt and disdain revealed in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. Oh, the broken-backed dog that wag its tail at the enemy and beg for mercy is so disgraceful!

Lu Jue raised his head to ask Gu Chi for his opinion.

"Sir, do you want to kill these two people?"

"It's easier to kill them like this." Gu Chi looked indifferent. He has many means to make people unable to survive or die, especially to deal with these so-called tough guys. , the effect is excellent, "Take it back and let the lord punish..." Let's settle the account slowly!

Even though Lu Jue was unhappy, he still clasped his fists: "Wei!"

Although the culprit who spread the disease was successfully caught, the matter is far from over, and there are still many doubts.

“Where are you going, sir?”

This is not the direction back to Fugu City.

Gu Chi: "Go and take a look at that corpse pit."

This epidemic is man-made. Dead rats with disease were put into the well water and spread to people, but the two How did the epidemics in Zhouzhou Village and Zhouzhou Village come about three years ago? According to records from the hospital, the epidemic was violent and fatal.

The spread is limited to two villages.

It seems that the previous county governor made a decisive decision and sent troops to seal off the villages to successfully prevent the spread of the epidemic, but is this really true?

Gu Chi is well-informed. He knows that the epidemic is not easy to control, and the previous county governor did not have the ability.

Lu Bueyue didn’t understand: “What’s so interesting about the corpse pit?”

While he was saying this, his hands were unambiguous.

He held one in each hand and followed Gu Chi quickly.

Lu Jue's movements were not gentle, and the pain caused the half-hearted scribe to scream pitifully, and he passed out from blood loss several times.

The corpse pit is at the junction of Zhouzhou Village and Zhouzhou Village.

The location is desolate and hidden, and the weeds are waist high.

Before I even got close, I could smell a pungent stench, and there were many highly decomposed bird carcasses lying near the corpse pit. Most of the corpses were still lying in the pit, and a dozen more had been dug up and scattered everywhere.

Lu Jue's face turned black from the smell.

He said: "Sir, let me go."

Gu Chi shook his head: "Nothing."

The corpses inside and outside the corpse pit were covered with countless wriggling maggots. He approached one of them, took a closer look, and raised his hand to take out a pair of gloves from his arms. , and then took out a pair of bamboo products similar to chopsticks and a delicate small plate.

Lu Jue: "???"

At the same time that a strange picture appeared in his mind, Gu Chi said without looking back: "Shou Sheng, stay away and be careful. Martial energy protects the body, don’t be hit by the evil spirit.”

"Wei!" Lu Jue was worried about Gu Chi and couldn't help stretching his neck. He kept watching his husband's movements for a moment. At the same time, he was alert to the surroundings, fearing that there were other accomplices in the hands of these two men. After looking at them for a long time, he asked, "Mr. Ah, you, what are you doing?”

I saw Gu Chi holding the chopsticks with his right hand with sharp knuckles, and flicking the tip back and forth on the corpse, brushing away the densely packed maggots that made people's skin crawl. He seemed to be rummaging for something on the corpse, and after a while he picked out something.

Lu Jue didn’t see clearly what it was.

I only saw Gu Chi carefully placing things on the plate. At first glance, I thought it was a dipping action, preparing something.

Gu Chi: "..."

He could still hold back.

But the content of Lu Jue's heartfelt words disgusted him.

Lü Jue might have more disgusting things in his mind, so Gu Chi stood up with the plate and handed it to Lu Jue for him to take a closer look.

“Look.”

Lu Jue leaned back in disgust.

“Sir, what’s so good about this maggot?”

It was smelly and disgusting, and it was covered in sticky yellow corpse water. I don’t know how the husband managed to hold on without vomiting.

Gu Chi asked back: "Do you think these are maggots?"

"What else could they be if they weren't maggots?"

Lu Jue pinched his nose and endured his nausea as he came closer. Upon closer inspection, I soon discovered something was wrong - compared with ordinary maggots, the bug in the dish was significantly larger, and its body was covered with countless tiny dots, which looked like shrunken white sesame seeds.

The head and tail are also different from maggots.

There are dozens of curled legs on both sides of the body.

The back has intricate black lines.

More like grubs than maggots.

“What is this?”

In other words, what kind of bug?

Gu Chi fiddled with the dead bug, his eyes grew colder, and he said: "Bug? To be precise, this is a kind of poisonous insect! Look at the white spots on its body, they are all insect eggs. The evil insect eggs are leaning against Only by absorbing essence and blood can you hatch, and after hatching, you can hatch. It also requires a lot of sperm and blood to continue laying eggs, and an ordinary person will die in ten and a half months!"

Although Lu Jue didn't know what kind of Gu insect this was, he couldn't help but make his hair stand on end just hearing these two words. I can't wait to step back and take a shot. He looked at the corpse pit, then at the Gu insect corpse that Gu Chi pulled out from the corpse, and said: "If this is a Gu insect...then the epidemics in Zhouzhou Village and Zhouzhou Village were also caused by humans?"

If it is a real epidemic, an entire city can die.

The epidemic two or three years ago was indeed strange.

“Most likely.”

Gu Chi found several more dead Gu insects from other corpses... The culprit of this epidemic was definitely this thing that had no chance of running away. He ordered Lu Jue to find firewood and licorice and clear a large area for burning the corpses.

Not only human corpses, but also nearby bird corpses.

The two of them worked until ten o'clock in the evening before returning to Fugu City with two half-dead "fish that slipped through the net" and a plate of Gu insect corpses and eggs. For safety, these insect eggs were wrapped heavily in paper handkerchiefs, and Shen Tang waited for a long time. "Watching the tide, will there be any results?"

Fugu City is still under martial law, and Shen Tang has not slept for two days and one night. She, who was usually full of energy, looked a little haggard.

Gu Chi breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

These words sounded like the sound of nature in the ears of Shen Tang and others.

"Have you found the source of the epidemic?"

"To be precise, this is not an epidemic."

Dr. Dong disagreed when he heard this.

"What if this isn't a disease?"

Gu Chi opened the plate carefully.

In an instant, the stench of corpses hit his nostrils. Dr. Dong, who was unprepared, was almost smoked, and it took him a long time to recover.

Everyone looked at Gu Chi suspiciously, wondering what he meant by bringing back a few maggots. Is this the source of the epidemic?

Gu Chi: "These are the eggs of voodoo insects."

"Gu?"

This word touched some of Shen Tang's memories. Last year, she met Gong Xiqiu outside the Allied Army camp, and the latter mentioned the matter of poisonous insects - Shaochong was infected by poisonous insects, and an "epidemic" caused by poisonous insects broke out in Heyin - this was really a coincidence ?

Gu insects don’t appear out of thin air.

Who is the one who caused the poison?

Questions were running around in Shen Tang's mind.

But, these are not the most important.

The most important thing is——

“How to cure this kind of poison?”

Dr. Dong twisted his gray beard and said: “If it is really a poison, Just draw them out before they absorb a lot of blood and lay eggs... No wonder ordinary medicines don't work."

After all, he is a student of medicine, not a prankster.

I only know a little bit about witchcraft and Gu.

Shen Tang asked: "Bring it out? How to lure it out?"

Dr. Dong said: "I don't know, I just heard my teacher mentioned that poisonous insects have their own preferences." When they come out, they have to use their favorite things, such as strong blood, a certain smell, martial spirit, literary spirit and even flowers..."

There are thousands of kinds of Gu insects, with different temperaments.

Who knows what this thing likes?

Shen Tang: "..."

Doctor Dong added: "You must move quickly. These are ordinary people. Their energy, energy and blood cannot be compared with those of literary scholars and courageous warriors. Once they are poisoned The insects are preparing to lay eggs, even if Daluo Jinxian comes, there is no way to save the day... ..."

Shen Tang asked: "How long?"

Dr. Dong judged the condition of the patients and estimated a rough time: "Two days at most."< br>
According to the situation, this Gu insect is impatient.

"Two days... ok, I understand, get the bowl!"

"What are you getting the bowl for?"

A sword that had not been seen for a long time appeared in Shen Tang's right hand.

Grab the sword with your left hand without hesitation.

Before everyone could react, a trace of blood was wiped out.

"Bloodletting!"

She was able to compete with Gong Xiqiu last year. These brave warriors under her account were no match for her. A group of literate scholars competed with each other with gentleness, and they were able to match the old, weak, sick and disabled. After thinking about it, it must be her blood that is most attractive to Gu insects.

“What are you doing standing still?”

“Bring a bowl and catch it——”

Looking at the blood dripping onto the ground, being absorbed by the soil, it sinks. Tang was heartbroken. He passed his hand forward and hung it on the table - the blood was flowing on the table, and he could still collect it when he looked back. Dr. Dong woke up and shouted.

"Mr. Shen, why are you doing this—" It is too reckless to bleed without any seriousness and without fear of getting to the root of the disease!

Shen Tang's blood flowed out for less than half a bowl.

Dr. Dong helped her bandage while he was chanting. Just as he tied the knot, Qi Shan walked in with a bad look on his face. The latter half-raised his bloody left hand, with the wound skin and flesh turned out. As soon as he came in, he asked: "My lord is injured?"

Before he could wait for the answer, a bowl came to him.

Pray for good: “???”

Shen Tang looked at Qi Shan guiltily: "I was careless."

She really didn't think much at that moment.

Qishan: "???"

Confused and confused.

Fortunately, the matter was not complicated to explain. In a few words, Qi Shan quickly understood what was going on with the wound.

He said helplessly: "If you need blood, either let good people come, or let a few come in half a step. How can you let the lord harm his body?"

Not sure whether the blood has any effect, the lord released it all at once. If there is so much, wouldn’t it be a waste if it is useless?

Dr. Dong went to the ward with two bowls of blood.

Study how to use blood to force out the worms.

Shen Tang doesn’t stop here either.

Now that it is known that someone threw a dead rat into the well water, the rat carcass must be fished out and the contaminated well water must be sealed to avoid repeating the same mistake. At present, it seems that someone accidentally drank raw water and drank the insect eggs.

Shen Tang was helpless: "Drink more hot water and avoid raw water. Does such a simple principle still require repeated orders?"

She, the county guard, is like a mother-in-law.

She had to supervise and urge the common people to take baths under the rule.

She also has to watch when drinking hot water.

Oral instructions are not enough, orders must be stamped!

But fortunately, it was discovered in time and it was controlled before it spread widely, so as to reduce casualties as much as possible. As long as these Gu insects are lured out, this crisis should be resolved. However, Shen Tang's tone of relief was obviously a little premature.

Blessings never come together, and misfortunes never come alone.

Bad things tend to get together.

While waiting for news, her ears heard the sound of footsteps approaching hurriedly outside the house, and she knew who it was as soon as she heard it.

"Wen Annotation."

The person who came was none other than Xu Jie.

At this time, Xu Jie's face looked as if it had been smeared with a thick layer of pot ash, almost blending into the dark night sky. Shen Tang greeted his injured left hand: "Here's good news."

Xu Jie smiled ugly, his breath sounded much weaker: "What a coincidence, there is bad news here."

"Bad news?"

"The exact same disease has appeared in Tianhai!"

Shen Tang was so shocked that he almost knocked over the tea cup on the table.

"Tianhai also appeared?"

Good guy——

Are you going to catch them all in one go?
